Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A user equipment (UE) may transmit an indication of a capability for the UE to support narrowband control signaling over a narrowband component carrier that is separate from data channel signaling over one or more wideband component carriers. The UE may receive control signaling indicating a configuration for the narrowband component carrier based on the capability and monitor for the narrowband control signaling on the narrowband component carrier based on the configuration. The UE may perform signal processing on narrowband signaling using a dedicated narrowband receive chain, which may include lower power components than a receive chain for wideband signaling.
